Meet Tor Martin Bonkerud, affectionately known in the digital chess ecosystem as TMBification. This chess player has spanned the ranks with a resilient spirit, navigating bullet, blitz, and rapid games with a tactical flair that’s anything but basic biology. Like a well-adapted organism, Tor Martin evolves his playstyle through the seasons, flourishing especially in the chaotic realm of Bullet chess where his max rating peaked close to 968 in 2020.

Growth and Development

Tor Martin's chess metabolism buzzes strongest in bullet games, boasting nearly 5,000 games and an almost 48.4% win rate—that's a lot of neurons firing in overdrive! Blitz games reveal a slightly lower but stable win rate around 45.7%, and rapid matches show early signs of potential with a 41.7% win rate from a smaller sample, proving that this chess organism is versatile and ready to adapt to new challengers.

A Winning Mindset

With a longest winning streak of 16 games, Tor Martin exhibits the kind of persistence that would make even the most steadfast amoeba proud. His comeback rate is an impressive 83.56%, and he sports a perfect 100% win rate after losing a piece—talk about bouncing back stronger than a cell after mitosis! Though the occasional tilt factor spikes to 9, it appears TMBification has mostly mastered the psychological machinery behind chess battles.

Style and Strategy

Preferring endgame finesse, Tor Martin reaches endgames nearly 69% of his games, using patient colony-like strategy over quick-fire attacks. His average moves per win is about 58—each game a fascinating dance of biological precision—whereas losses tend to drag a little longer, averaging 61 moves. White and black win ratios are pretty balanced, indicating a healthy adaptability no matter what color cells... err, pieces, he commands.

Chess Ecosystem and Opponents

Whether encountering long-time rivals like ttd16 or matching wits with a plethora of opponents ranging from riffmcgriff to humungers, Tor Martin’s win rate varies, sometimes crystallizing into 100% victories and occasionally slipping to more Darwinian outcomes. This dynamic record is a testament to his growth in the wild world of competitive play.

Fun Fact

When not splitting pawns like chromosomes, Tor Martin seems to thrive when the clock strikes 10 AM, boasting about a 51.9% win rate, and between 16 and 20 hours with win rates nudging or surpassing 50%, proving he’s a creature of habit and peak performance. Perhaps the secret to his success lies in a combination of neural agility and timely caffeine – a true chess biologist!

In summary, Tor Martin Bonkerud is a fascinating example of biological chess evolution: persistently resilient, adaptively tactical, and biologically wired to survive and thrive on the 64-square petri dish.
